If it helps New Jersey mitigate, adapt, or build resilience, it belongs on the calendar. Any size, any format. We help you make it happen.
EVENT PROPOSALS CLOSING !
Listing an event is free. It always will be.
Every listing carries accessibility details, cost, and location, and lands in Google, Outlook, or any app that reads an ICS feed.
Hosts get a ready-to-edit promotion kit for each event: descriptions for Partiful and Eventbrite, social captions, and a newsletter blurb.
Alliance programming connects organizations across sectors monthly, so collaborations start before the week and outlast it.
A curated library points to New Jersey's own institutions first: state programs, university tools, and municipal certification paths.
Bring an idea, a place, or a group of people. We will help you turn it into a clear, welcoming listing.
A host runs a public event, during the week, that helps New Jersey mitigate, adapt, or build resilience to climate change. That is the whole requirement. Size, format, budget, and experience are not.
Not sure yet? That is fine. Send us the idea you have and we will help shape the next step.
These are the Community Agreements every host, partner, and sponsor takes part under. They are about how we treat each other, not what your event has to be.
01We uplift the people already doing the work.
Climate Week is a platform for the community, not the center of it. We strive to amplify local organizations, community leaders, volunteers, artists, educators, businesses, and residents who are already creating positive change. Give credit generously. Celebrate others often.
02We welcome everyone acting in good faith.
Climate Week brings together people from different backgrounds, lived experiences, professions, beliefs, and political perspectives. We believe sustainability touches every community and every aspect of life. Respectful dialogue, curiosity, and collaboration are encouraged.
03We communicate with integrity.
When using the NJ Climate Week name, logo, or branding, communications should align with our mission of connecting communities and amplifying climate and sustainability efforts throughout New Jersey. Partners should accurately describe their relationship with NJ Climate Week and should not imply endorsement, leadership, or authority beyond what has been agreed upon.
04We honor our commitments.
If you organize an event, sponsor an initiative, or make a commitment to Climate Week, we ask that you communicate openly, follow through whenever possible, and notify organizers promptly if plans change.
05We create welcoming spaces.
Whether hosting an event or participating in one, we strive to create environments that are respectful, accessible, and welcoming to all attendees. Healthy disagreement is part of meaningful collaboration. We discuss ideas respectfully, listen to understand, and avoid personal attacks, harassment, discrimination, or intimidation.
06We share the platform.
No single organization, business, institution, or individual is the face of NJ Climate Week. Climate Week belongs to the community. We encourage partners to celebrate not only their own work, but also the work of others participating throughout the week.
07We leave our communities stronger.
Success is measured not only by attendance or visibility, but by the relationships built, ideas shared, partnerships formed, and communities strengthened.
